Abstract:

A review describes the three general steps involved in the control of biofouling, i.e., detection of biofilms, sanitation of the actual fouling situation, and prevention of further fouling events. Some mistakes in conventional anti-fouling strategies are identified and the new approaches to overcome them are provided.
